Well, it won't be _powered_ from that IC. My guess is that said IC provides
the HSync and VSync signals, the video comes from other devices on the
main PCB. But that is a guess without seeing the machine/

I would be very surprised if that was not OK.

You haven't told us what the problem is.

Do you get anything on the screen? Is the CRT heater glowing? Have you
measured the CRT pin voltages?

I can see one IC on that 'analogue board'. Looks to have metal heatsink 
tabs so I am going to make a wild guess that it's a TDA1170 vertical 
deflection IC Are there any other ICs on the board? My guess is that
the 'analogue board' could be reverse-engineered without too much
work.

Can you provide a clear picture of the component side of the
board with nothing else in the way?
